This is my dumb ass house right now in early December. It’s a winter wonderland of white crap.

This is the back of the house. The good thing about the frozen pond, is hockey. I have a neat way to test the ice. I throw my two dogs across the lake and if neither of them fall in the water or break the ice then I know the ice is ready.

If they do fall in or break the ice, I know that I need to stay inside and get warm. Oh, and get the dogs out of the icy water at some point.

“Help us we’re stupid”

This is the park a mile from my house. Memo to self: if you live in a place that has THIS permanent sign near by, you probably should expect a lot of shitty winter weather. By the way jerks, that is the sledding side not the snowboard side. A-holes.

Let’s check the current weather forecast. It’s 8:30am in the god damn morning and it’s 14 degrees but with the wind it feels like 1 degree. SUPER DUPER. I should let everyone know that I spent the first 30 years of my life in the state of Florida. As my dad always said, I’m moving the wrong direction.

Let’s check the extended 10-day forecast:

Looks like the highlight of the next 10 days comes on December 9th when temperatures will soar above freezing, peaking at the break neck melting temperature of 33 degrees.

If you need me the next few months I’ll probably be by the fire. I’m smiling here because the snow hadn’t blown into town like the wintry whore that she is.
